Remove the batteryWait, you can’t do that these days…With enough height, any drop would do. 😎 Follow me for more shitty advice.
That begs the question of whether the terminal velocity of a phone is enough to eject the battery.
Unless the height you’re dropping it from is on Jupiter
I tried typing
velocityin the terminal and got avelocity command not found.I guess the command crew is out on vacation, so no terminal velocity 🤔
I’m pretty sure it is, an arms height drop on the right angle can break open most smartphones, statistically speaking we need a bigger height to increase our chances.
So most modern smartphones do use adhesive strips to attach the battery to the midframe and its pretty strong… Which is why I always advise heating your device to 70c BEFORE lobbing it off the roof to help with battery removal!
Unfortunately my phone is rated to withstand such a fall…
May as well sign up for some Vim users groups, then.
I’m 6 feet 2 inches. Would that be high enough?
Too late. Removed batteries, now car doesn’t start ☹️
Not yet
Damn, I guess you need a new phone.
I’ve been telling myself that for a while.
I guess it’s time now.
You don’t exit Vim. Only Vim exits you.
There should be a hardware reset pin hole somewhere near the place where PIN/SD cards are placed. It was designed specifically for VIM users. Hold it with a narrow object.
EDIT: typo
I’m stealing this forever. Thank you.
I solemnly swear to explain “it’s for Vim users” every time I speak of those little pin reset buttons in the future.
Obviously, you need to feed the cow first!
Too late. You’ll need a new phone.
I’ve learned a few new commands now.
:edials an existing contact, and:wsaves contact information.:q!is super useful for hanging up on robo-callersI think this thing could work… I dub it the vimphone!
Click the home button?
Force stop the app!! Turn off the phone!! Throw it into Mordor! Its literally the only way
I sense that the creature Golum may yet have some part to play before the end of this journey.

Added context.
ESC exits Insert mode (or any other mode you are in)
: tells vim you are entering a command
q is the command for quit
! tells vim for force quit (without saving)
Alternatively, :wq will write (save) the file then quit.

Where do you think I am posting this from?
If one can exit vim, one can exit anywhere.
You are correct. I can exit at any time but I choose to stay because it is nice here.
First: press escape
Then type
:!killall -s KILL vimOn some devices you can hold the back key to kill the foreground app.

You might also try Typing
:qIs this real ? 😂
Try it to find out!
- Install Termux from F-Droid
- Open Termux, and run
pkg install gvim. You might have to add the xorg repo - it will tell you what to do if you try runningvim - Launch
vim - You can checkout any time you like but you can never leave…
pkg install gvim
Why install the gui version?
pkg install vimOnly
gvimis available in pkg, notvim. I had the same surprise when I didn’t seevim.Works on my computer
This is from
termuxon my Android phone, not from my desktop/laptop.I’m using termux too
Yeah, why not? It’s just a terminal running vim.
Pull the power cord? Let the battery run out?
